Contact

You can write to us on WhatsApp or by email, or call us: we reply in English and coordinate your consultation at any of the three locations. And if you prefer, you can book directly in the doctor's calendar.

Write to us

You can tell us the reason for your visit.

Your name, a WhatsApp number and what your report says, if you have one, is enough. We usually reply within one business day and tell you whether a virtual evaluation or an in-person visit makes more sense, and at which location.

  1. 01We reply
  2. 02We coordinate the date and the location
  3. 03You come with your studies

Your studies are not uploaded to or stored on this website: they go directly to Dr. Jacobo's practice, and only the team evaluating your case sees them.

This is the number we will reply to.

If you are not sure, you can leave it blank.

Can be changed later.

Your details are used only to reply to you.

Questions

What people usually ask before writing.

  • Your studies, if you have them: the thyroid ultrasound and the biopsy, if one was done. A photograph of the report taken with your phone is enough. And if you have neither yet, you can write to us all the same: the consultation begins with them.

  • Whichever suits you: Santiago, Santo Domingo or San Francisco de Macorís. Dr. Jacobo has no fixed days per location, so we give you the nearest date at the center you choose. If you are flying in, Santiago.

  • Usually within one business day, Dominican time (GMT-4). If you write at night or on a weekend, the next business day.

  • Yes. The fastest is a photograph of the report on WhatsApp, as long as it is legible. If you prefer to attach the files, you can send them by email.

  • Yes. In the doctor's calendar you pick a date and time, in person at any of the three centers or virtual by video call with online payment. If you are not sure this treatment is suitable for your case, you can write to us first and we will gladly tell you.

It would be a pleasure to review your case with you.

In person in Santiago, Santo Domingo or San Francisco de Macorís, or virtual from wherever you are. You choose the day and the format when you book.
